Why is there always a "+" on the end?
Is that just how they indicate that there's always going to be more "identities" in the future (as soon as they discover a name for them)?

I always thought it meant 'positive'

What about the negatives though? That's so exclusionary.

How is that different from an LGHDTV?
Higher resolution? better contrast?

 

[Dr. Suchong]

Does this mean there'll also be new colours added to the already hideous flag?

Canada is so cooked

Yes. In other words they could call them "+people" and leave it at that but the ideology is all performative and fake so you get this shit instead.

Why is it always a "genocide ?" Are people hunting and killing these folks? Using that word is a complete insult to groups who actually went though such a horror.

 

[epicurius-seven]

So 'murdered' is a gender now.

What if you just like dead people but not necessarily murdered ones? Or is that just decisedgendered thinking?

Uhh… asking for a friend.

Oppression must go on. There's always another one.

Exactly.
New identities will be marginalised before anyone knows anything about them.
Opressed by default.

Max Victimhood.

Yeah I'm not redeeming that one.

Mark Carney's got nothing to do with this at all, it's a member of the NDP.

The NDP made it all the way to official opposition under Jack Layton (RIP, only poltician I've ever went to see speak) and now they've got 6 seats, not enough for official party status. As someone who used to vote for them, and I still consider myself to be on the left, it's them doing objectively stupid things like this that are driving even more people away :/ .

NDP MP Leah Gazan is standing by her use of the initialism MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+ and denouncing those who are mocking her online for using the term.

A clip of the Winnipeg Centre MP saying "the ongoing genocide of MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+" during a news conference in Ottawa went viral this week and sparked backlash, including insults from Elon Musk and U.S. Republican Sen. Ted Cruz.

"Bigots are bigots," Gazan told CBC News in response.

"I certainly am really happy that bigots are offended by my positions around equality. What I am concerned about and certainly motivated — continue to be motivated about — is ending systemic racism in this country."
